Jun 8, 2017RETROFIT SNOW GUARDS - CALCULATING THE "REACH":When retrofit snow guards are used on existing roofs, they are typically installed without removing any slates or tiles. The notched shank snowguards have a limited "reach" however, and if your nails are too high, you won't be able to reach them to hook the snowguard into place.
